It’s the time that Love Island<\/a> fans have been patiently waiting for \u2013 Casa Amor.<\/p>\n

And whilst the drama has been steadily trickling into pretty much every episode of this season, things are only set to reach fever pitch as the new batch of islanders descend.<\/p>\n

The controversial second villa couldn’t come at a more contentious time, as all eyes continue to be on Lorenzo<\/a> and Jasmine<\/a> – who were initially coupled up. They decided to become friends instead and went off to pursue other connections.<\/p>\n

Well now, the pair only continue to be in each other’s orbit, and as last night’s recoupling proved, things remain rocky for the pair \u2013 and for Kavan<\/a> and Yasmin<\/a>, who find themselves in the beloved love square.<\/p>\n

Understandably, there are some Casa Amor islanders who are keeping their cards close to their chests. But for the most part, they have their eyes on plenty of the OG islanders.<\/p>\n

As for what we can expect when they land, Mara has already teased about entering Casa Amor: “I feel good about it. I\u2019ve always kind of wanted to be a Casa babe. A bombshell is good, but a Casa Amor babe? That is iconic. I feel good. Obviously a bit nervous but I\u2019m excited because it\u2019s a bit of drama. My friends say I\u2019m dramatic. I also love seeing whether someone\u2019s going to be like, \u201cNo, I want her instead.\u201d That\u2019s everything. Choose me. Always me!”<\/p>\n

When asked who she has her eye on, Martha revealed: “I need to meet someone in real life first to see what the vibes are. I kind of fancy them all! I think Lorenzo\u2019s so handsome, and he\u2019s tall. Fitzy\u2019s handsome too, and it\u2019s nice that he\u2019s a primary school teacher. I quite like the brothers, but I can\u2019t decide between Kavan and Aidan. I like Aidan\u2019s tattoos, but Kavan seems more mature.”<\/p>\n

With her eyes on Fitzy, could this be the thing that rocks his solid relationship with Lola? Perhaps.<\/p>\n

As for model Will, when asked to describe his Casa Amor energy, he said: “I think I\u2019m just going to go in there and try and get into the groove straight away and be unapologetically me. At the same time, I\u2019m aware that I\u2019m coming in for Casa so I quite enjoy the thought of causing some chaos.”<\/p>\n

So, we can certainly expect some drama.<\/p>\n

Last night’s recoupling saw Lorenzo choose to stay with Yasmin (despite many glances over at Jasmine in the process) and Kavan choosing Jasmine, even though they’re going through a major blip in their relationship.<\/p>\n

Aidan<\/a> was also left to couple up with Priya<\/a> while the other pairings include Ellie<\/a> and Finley<\/a>, Angelista<\/a> and Simba<\/a>, Mica<\/a> and Samraj<\/a>, and Lola<\/a> and Sean<\/a>. With some relationships a lot more rockier than others, will Casa Amor be a much-needed test or see heads being completely turned?<\/p>\n
